Are there some good open engines to play them on Linux?

http://debian.drdteam.org/pool/multiverse/g/gzdoom/
After installing, just go to your directory with your Heretic of Hexen "iwads" and type gzdoom in a terminal. It will then prompt you with which base Doom style game you want to launch, like Heretic, Hexen, Doom, Freedoom or whatever other iwads you have in that directory. Enjoy.

I'm trying to run it with GZDoom g4.5.0 on Debian testing. May be I didn't set up / configure things right.

But didn't install the package, just placed the unpacked data in $HOME/games/gzdoom
And then tweaked $HOME/.config/gzdoom/gzdoom.ini so it would pick needed things:
[IWADSearch.Directories]
...
PATH=$HOME/games/heretic/game
...
[SoundfontSearch.Directories]
...
Path=$HOME/games/gzdoom/soundfonts
Path=$HOME/games/gzdoom/fm_banks
...
May be they built it weirdly. I'll try building it from source. For some reason it's not in the Debian repo.
